Mac pro 2.66 dual core shut down takes too long

What happen? I did a disk utility and no repairs needed. When I shut down, the little spinning circle just stays on the screen. The only way to turn off the computer is the power from the wall. Help please.

thanks

have you tried this using a different wall power outlet. Cause I have one where I have this problem sometimes. But on others nothing. it just works.

mrdinh, does this behavior repeat all the time now, on every shutdown? Do you notice any other issues with your Mac? As always, could you provide the details of your system? Thanks.
